Fetal cardiology is an important part of management for high-risk pregnancies: one in every 100 babies is born with a heart problem. Fully updated, this second edition of Fetal Cardiology covers all aspects of fetal heart disease and relevant non-cardiac aspects of diagnosis and management. This handbook provides clinically relevant guidance in a concise, practical format which is ideal for use in the clinic and as a quick reference for the reader.
Featuring new chapters on the three vessel trachea view and neurodevelopment issues in fetal cardiac disease, and brand new high-quality annotated images; this new edition is the definitive pocket guide to the subject.
Clearly structured to allow a systematic approach to diagnosis, decision making, and patient counselling, Fetal Cardiology is perfect as a refresher for experienced clinicians in fetal and cardiological care, or as an informative overview for the paediatrician, echocardiographer, and trainees in associated disciplines.

Features:
• Provides a concise and clearly structured overview to all aspects of fetal cardiology, from diagnosis to management and counselling.
• Uses bullet points and headings to provide complex information in an accessible format.
• Filled with high-quality annotated illustrations and a colour plates section to aid understanding of specific topics and diagnostic techniques.
• Designed to act as a quick refresher for the experienced clinician in the field of fetal cardiology, or as a comprehensive overview for trainees and associated health professionals.

New to this Edition:
• New chapters on the three vessel trachea view and neurodevelopment issues in fetal cardiac disease.
• Fully refreshed image selection, with new high-quality echocardiograms and annotated scans.
